Last Night at TechCrunch Meetup Atlanta

by Carey Tucker

We were in the house last night at Privé for TechCrunch Meetup Atlanta to see 8 local startups, including some we’ve covered here at Hype, compete in a pitch-off. In front of a packed house and 5 judges made up of of TechCrunch writers and local VCs, the entrepreneurs had 60 seconds to pitch their product or service.

First Place received a table in Startup Alley at an upcoming TechCrunch Disrupt. Second Place received (2) tickets to an upcoming TechCrunch Disrupt. Third Place received (1) ticket to the upcoming TechCrunch Disrupt.

The winners were:
First Place: CarLingo
Second Place: teamup
Crowd Favorite: Borrowed By Design
